    Douglas GP surgery will not close, Minister says

    The Island's Health and Social Care Minister says he 'categorically confirms' a GP surgery in Douglas will not close.

    In a message seen by 3FM, David Ashford MHK says whilst the current partners of the Snaefell Surgery in Anagh Coar have served notice on their contract this will not lead to the practice shutting its doors.

    The minister states he hopes the practice partners will reconsider their decision but the facility will continue to operate even if this means under new management.

    The practice has over 5,300 patients on its books as well as three GP's, two part-time nurses and a nurse practitioner.
